I fully agree! Don't know what Google were thinking, but the current download and review model pushed me away from Android and back to BlackBerry and iPhone, where we have better control over quality and - at the very least - a chance to defend against both stupidity and purposeful attacks against our brand and products.
In the curent Android Marketplace you're not just on your own, you're without any control whatsoever. The ability to charge for applications will be one small way to change that, but it's not going to be a big thing by itself. I hope someone from the Android team reads that and doesn't ignore it on the basis of it being non-technical. They'd just repeat the mistake they did back at Palm. We *are* technical. You're just preventing us from showing it on your platform. - bobby On Feb 3, 8:51 am, gsmd <[email protected]> wrote: > The whole non-moderated comment system is broken from the start.
